For educational purposes.. is this a vienna marked tort otter? She looks orange but how do you explain the small tint of black on her back, face and ears.

I would definitely say orange VM. Oranges vary in smut.. this one has a bit. Certainly not tort, though, as it is both too light and lacking in all tort shading. |

Two different rabbits? They look similar. Well, I wouldn't really call the other one smutty.. just has a bit. Yours appears to be extremely clean. Do you know her color background? For comparison, I have a few torts on my website: http://shaydfields.weebly.com/bucks.html Just imagine any of those torts with otter markings.

Yes they are not the same rabbit, the first one is a rabbit from a shelter. So i don't know her background. But if you asked for mine, she has a blue vm dad and harlequin mother. I've seen tort otters before but i thought she was one too, wasn't really sure. And this is the reason why i posted her picture, for educational purposes to learn more about certain rare colors, especially shaded and shaded otters need more attention.

The fuzzy one is tort otter? The chestnut colorish look means he is chocolate?

I would say it's tort otter. A dark one. Definitely not chocolate tort otter.. choco torts are really light, they look a lot like an orange without the agouti markings. |

Wow, reh, those barely have any shading at all! Very bizarre. Torts can vary so much.. I think that's what confuses people a lot of the time. |
